“Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.”

Similarly, the House of Representatives has also postponed its plenary resumption to February 4. Akin Rotimi, the spokesman for the House, confirmed this in a statement quoting Yahaya Danzaria, Clerk of the House.
According to Rotimi:
“The House of Representatives has announced the postponement of its plenary resumption, previously scheduled for Tuesday, January 28, 2025.
“The new date for resumption is now set for Tuesday, February 4, 2025.
“This development was communicated to Honourable Members through an internal memorandum issued by the Clerk of the House of Representatives, Dr. Yahaya Danzaria, Esq., on the directive of the House Leadership.”
Reason for the Delay
The postponement aims to provide legislative committees more time to finalize budget defence sessions with Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs). This is part of an effort to ensure a detailed and thorough budgetary review.
The House reaffirmed its commitment to delivering on its legislative mandate, emphasizing that the decision reflects a dedication to serving the interests of Nigerians.
